Nikki Wooster-Goodwin, Program Director
Hello Everyone! My name is Nikki Wooster-Goodwin and I am the Program Director for the NLRA. I have always been the type of individual that thrives on being proud of what I do and what better place to thrive than in an organization like the NLRA. I have spent the better part of 15 years of my life earning a living from our forest, lakes and mountains throughout the United States. I am a licensed NY State Rock-Climbing Guide and a Wilderness Emergency Medical Technician. I have owned my own hiking business as well as been an independent contractor for both the Appalachian Mountain Club and Eastern Mountain Sports. I am extremely aware of the need for environmental awareness and when I heard about the NLRA and learned of the organization’s mission, I knew that I could be a great advocate for their devoted cause. For those of you who are members and for those who volunteer for the NLRA, it will be a pleasure to meet you. For those of you that have yet to get involved, please come and meet us and ask some questions! Let us talk you into becoming a part of something that you can be proud of too!
